Top 5 Tips for Selecting a Great Contractor

5/12/2018

0 Comments

 
1 - Ask your friends and peers. These first hand experiences should be the most valued.
2 - Search the web. It's true that the construction industry has been slow to adopt technology, however there are many reputable companies with a strong reputation online. A quick Google search will often show standout companies locally.
3-Ask other trade contractors you already trust. Different trades in construction often work alongside each other during a project. It's always obvious who the reputable contractors are when you're collaborating in 1 project.
4-DON'T ever trust a contactor that expects to be fully paid before a job is complete. If the payment schedule seems to lean in the contractors favor, consider searching further.
5-Ask if they can give you a lead time. Often if a contactor can't give you an estimated time to complete a project they really just don't know how long it will take.

At Hillcrest Cabinets we strive in providing the best possible experience for our clients. Give us a call we would love to chat about a project your have in mind.

7-Offer family a free meal if you let them cook it in their kitchen ;)
8-Treat yourself to dinner at a restaurant.
9-Hot plate in replacement of your stove top
10-Most notably always bare in mind the finsh line. Your end result will be well worth all the hassle.

There is a large variance in cost when considering your kitchen and bathroom finishes.
Thermofoil kitchens often offer spectacular durability and diverse colour options. A smart choice for many areas of your home.
Painted options offer a more high end look. Also in the event it is damaged can be easily repaired. Painted MDF is a cost effective substrate for doors and panels. Durability is good. Painted wood far more durable than MDF. It should be mentioned that painted wood sometimes shows lines where the door joints are.
Stained kitchens are usually highest price and richest look.
